A1 beat B10, and they destroyed the Betasphere. It was a hard thing for the mind because they know they know they are killing billions of people, but they don't have any other choice but to destroy that universe for their own good. They all are wounded and tired. And also some of the guardians in their army died. And they want to recruit some of the guardians also after that battle. But Saint will instruct that they will not enlist the people who got scared and ran away.
Zup helped Saint to get up. He grabbed his hands so he wouldn't fall again. Saint looked at his eyes and smiled with full of joy. This is the first time he has become this happy in his entire life. Kentamin and Hirunarian also followed them and went on to the castle. The place is destroyed. But the castle is still there. Some of its parts are gone, but there isn't any major damage. Saint sat in front of the castle and said to them,
"Leave me here and help the others," he said with a tired voice. They left him there and went again to the battlefield and saw that there were still some guardians there. Wounded and tired. They helped them to go on the castle. Some of the guardians can still walk, but the others' condition is worse. They took them like a baby and dropped them on the castle. When the time they reached the castle, they saw a huge number of doctors waiting for them. They helped them to find the wounded guardians and started to treat them. They also take Zup and Kentamina and also Hirunarian to their special treatment center because they are also wounded. They all three got a bed and a personal doctor. And they checked them and started to treat them. Actually, Zup is afraid of injections, but he has no choice but to take it. He closed his eyes tightly when they took the injection. Hirunarian and Kentamin are staying near them; they both smiled when they saw the struggles of Zup to take the injection.
"Are you scared of injections?" Kentamin asked with a mocking smile. Zup didn't answer; he just smiled back.
They spent two days there, and the doctors treated them carefully. And their health will increase day by day. And one day Saint went there to see them. Actually, Zup thought that he was more injured than them, but he got his health back before them. He asked about how they are doing, and when the time him to goes, he announced something, that is
"MIGUEL ZUP IS GOING TO BE THE NEXT KNIGHT OF THE A1 UNIVERSE."
He also said that Kentamin and Hirunarian are also going to become the guardians. But they are not satisfied with that. They all wanted to become knights. They didn't respond to that announcement. And Saint realised that and said
"Don't worry, there is always a next year; you can again try for the knight selection exam next year."
That didn't make them happy. But at least they are not against Zup. The main reason for that is they know that he is more powerful because he fought with Soldrig head-on and defeated him. That's not enough; his power got an uprise for his powers. And these facts will make him a favorite for the knight position. For these reasons they didn't stand against Zup. But they decided to train more and become the knight next year. Now they can walk around that room, so when Saint was gone, they both went on Zup's bed. He is still there on the hangover of that announcement that Saint made. He became very happy, and he wanted to jump and dance because of joy. He woke up from his flow of thoughts when they called him. Hirunarian looked at him and said,
"Don't be happy… your position will only stay with me for 365 days… and the next knight will be me."
"no…not you…" "It's me," Kentamin said in the middle of their conversation.
"We can deal with it later. But he won't be the knight after 1 year," Hirunarian said again. Zup didn't say anything. He likes the competition like that, and he always enjoys that. And when his opponent is this strong, the competition will be tougher.
He didn't sleep that night; he was full of joy. He looked at the sky and counted the stars. He knows it was a dumb idea, but he doesn't know what to do other than that. He can't sleep, so he thinks that this was the best idea to spend his time.
Morning. He is still standing near the window. When he saw that the sun was coming back, he went back to his bed and sat on it. He is still on that joy of becoming the knight. On that day Saint visited them again and said that
"When you get discharged, come to the castle because before becoming a knight or a guardian, you need some essential training, and before that also, we will arrange a new selection and find some new good guys for our guardian spot, so rest well."
This is the last time they see him. because he has so many jobs to do. So he can't visit them.
And on that day they were discharged from the hospital and went into the castle. All members in there are waiting for them. Saint, give them rooms to sleep and spend their time. And asked them to come to the hall.
There was a big hall in the middle of that castle. It is used for any common meetings or celebrations. There are so many chairs and desks there. And they are not alone there. Like Saint said, they conducted a new selection and selected a few people. When everyone sat in their seats. Saint took the mic.
"Dear new guardians and knight…" He started his speech. and everyone looks towards him
